Oh man, I had the strangest dream last night. For the first time I dreamt I had hair and was at a salon all day long looking at hair products and trying to figure out which ones I NEEDED. Very strange. The weird thing about my hair is that I really don’t miss it at all. I thought I would be upset or sad that I no longer had this hair that defined me, but I love the low maintenance of my shaved/balding head. I think it freaks people out but I just don’t really care all that much. I have my husband shave it about every two weeks to keep it tight but other than that, nothing. I will say it was especially helpful to not have hair when I stroked out. That would have been extremely difficult to navigate. I joke with A all the time about never having hair again, but it’s all just talk. I do miss the accessory that hair allows. Kind of like make up. Not needed but it does change a persons look.
I don’t miss shaving though. My leg and under arm hair can go away forever. That would be nice. See ya later hair.
I wouldn’t miss shaving either 😉
I like this post.
Sorry about your hair; it was a big part of who you were, but, like you said, it was only one part. You, fighting cancer and getting stronger every day is more important than the fullest head of hair.
Keep kicking cancer’s butt and sending lots of love!
